Kept checking in on Fox and found quite a lot of live coverage that should place doubt in the minds of at least a few. It’s remarkable how effective even a brief live soundbite can be, because every sentence said by the house managers plants a nail. No empty rhetoric, no rambling supposedly fireside-chat homilies: only the bare facts and lots of them.

Michael Steele said something about Josh Hawley cutting his toe nails during the trial today. No word on whether Ms. Lindsey Graham was painting hers.

And once again Fox ends its coverage at 5 pm Eastern time to broadcast The Five.

I can’t watch this footage of violence so am going to do a Crooks and Liars post about Sen. Josh Hawley not paying attention.

Fox just interrupted coverage of the trial to put on Steve Scalise to complain about Democrats.

Sol Wisenberg on Fox (no liberal but not a Trumper ideologue) just called Trump’s defense very weak.

Chris Wallace saying that Swalwell taking the rhetoric all the way back to the summer was very effective.

Swalwell: “He built this mob over many months with repeated messaging.” With video and Twitter receipts.

Swalwell is now going through Trump’s tweets in advance of the rally on Jan. 6. Very, very damning.

I don’t know if this will make a difference to what happens but Noguse is putting forward a devastating case against Trump.

Raskin just told of a Capitol Police officer crying after the insurrection riot, when he was called the N-word and asking, “Is this America?”
